Bet you any amount of money that they’re mostly running behind schedule and over budget because of change orders and other meddling by the state.

Get the contractors that work on Disneys portion of I-4. Those guys bring it in on time and under budget because they have to or Disney doesn’t pay them.

Are there any instances of a state or federal highway project coming in on time or at least near the budget initially set?

A 4% overrun on a 7 year project? That's far from being outrageous. A massively busy highway kept open during construction.

On one hand, it should have been built into the bid and the partners should eat it.

OTOH, you want it on time? Fine, more land closures, more gridlock.
